Floor Care & VCT Maintenance

Strip-and-wax, burnishing, auto-scrubbing, and routine VCT programs that keep hard floors glossy, safe, and protected.

What it is

Hard floors are one of the first things people notice — and one of the easiest to neglect. SBS keeps your VCT, tile, concrete, and resilient flooring clean, glossy, and protected with a disciplined floor-care program built around how your building is used.

From periodic strip-and-wax and high-speed burnishing to nightly auto-scrubbing, we match the right process and frequency to each floor type so finishes last longer, slip risk drops, and your space always looks cared for.

Every program is scheduled around your operations — after hours or in zones — so floors get restored without disrupting your day.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before requesting a quote.

What’s the difference between strip-and-wax and burnishing?

Strip-and-wax fully removes old finish and applies fresh coats for a like-new floor; burnishing is a high-speed polish that restores gloss between strips. We combine both on a schedule to keep floors looking their best.

How often should VCT floors be stripped and waxed?

It depends on traffic — many facilities do a full strip-and-wax once or twice a year with regular burnishing and scrubbing in between. We recommend a frequency based on your floor and foot traffic.

Can you work after hours so floors are ready by morning?

Yes. Floor work is almost always scheduled after hours or in zones so finishes can cure without disrupting your operations.

Do you handle floors other than VCT?

Yes — we care for tile, concrete, terrazzo, and most resilient hard floors, matching the right process to each surface.

Are you insured and bonded?

Yes. SBS carries full general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and our staff are bonded. We can provide a certificate of insurance (COI) naming your organization before service begins.

Who actually does the work — and are they vetted?

Every member of our team is directly trained, uniformed, and background-checked. We don’t subcontract your account to strangers; you get a consistent, accountable crew.
